Popular Parmesan ranch seasoning recalled. See affected item

A popular seasoning product has been recalled due to a potential salmonella health risk.

Blackstone Products recalled its Parmesan ranch seasoning, according to a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) notice published on May 15.

The action stems from a separate recall of dry milk powder from California Dairies, Inc.

The milk powder ingredient was supplied to a third-party manufacturer and used in the seasoning product, the notice states. No illnesses have been reported in connection with the recall.

The products were sold in Walmart stores and on the Blackstone Products' website.

What is salmonella?

Salmonella is a group of bacteria that, when consumed in food or water, can cause serious and fatal infections in children, elderly people and individuals with weakened immune systems, according to the Cleveland Clinic. Symptoms include fever, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain.

Severe infections can result in more serious illnesses, such as arterial infections, endocarditis and arthritis if the organism enters the bloodstream, the FDA notice states.

The numbers are located on the bottom of the product package.
